continues the BBCtv tribute to Cary Grant who died last year. Today with Leslie Caron, Trevor Howard
'Mother Goose' is the unlikely radio code-name for Cary Grant, playing a South Seas beachcomber who is pressed into service as a military observer during World War.
In the midst of bombing Leslie Caron, as a French schoolteacher, turns up with a troop of seven young schoolgirls and Cary finds himself having to take the role of 'Father Goose' as well, as the stage is set for comedy all the way.

from Holmfirth, West Yorkshire
Holmfirth is a Yorkshire textile town fighting industrial decline. In recent years it has developed a tourist industry, with fans of Last of the Summer Wine coming to see where
Nora Batty , Compo and the rest live.
When Roger Royle visited the town he caught the ferocious Nora in sunny mood. He was taught some of the local dialect by ELSIE HOUGHTON and he also discovered how a local Methodist minister and his wife coped when one of their daughters disappeared. The people of Holmfirth meet in the parish church to sing their songs of praise.

Compo discovers - too late - that the little black ball he has just tossed into Seymour's pond is of great sentimental value to him - particularly relating to one Nora Batty. But Seymour is more interested in demonstrating his new voice-activated, electronic door-lock.

Fear Thy Neighbour
Figures show that crime is rising year by year. Fear of crime seems to be growing even more rapidly: police forces encourage neighbourhood watch groups, alarmed individuals train in techniques of self-defence and security guards now outnumber police officers.
Jeremy Paxman asks where the rising tide of fear will end, and discovers that in some areas citizens are already taking up arms because they believe the state can no longer protect them.

Photographing the Sky
Can you take astronomical photographs with limited equipment? The surprising answer is yes. Though such pictures cannot rival those of professional astronomers or skilled, well-equipped amateurs, they are pleasing to the eye and may even be of some scientific value. Patrick Moore talks to
Douglas Arnold about what can be achieved with very limited photographic equipment.
